    Good luck 40SM, I hope your meeting goes well. I would push for statementing as it will guarantee him the support he needs. It doesn't mean he can't get support without it but it will have his entitlement written in black and white.:grouphug:
  • The meeting went very well. The Educational Psycologist was the best we have ever seen and I now feel that we may actually get somewhere:).

    AND ... there were no tears:T:T

    Thanks for all the good wishes . Very much appreciated.

    Now off to work .

    I'm glad the meeting went well 40SM :).

    You've got me worried about my veneers now, they are 20 years old :D, well past there sell by date.
    I learned that courage was not the absence of fear, but the triumph over it. The brave man is not he who does not feel afraid, but he who conquers that fear.
